When a boundary ,
fixed and by mutual consent ,
has been permitted to stand for twenty -
one years ,
it cannot afterwards be disturbed .
In accordance with this rule ,
it has been decided ,
that where town lots have been occupied up to a line fence between them ,
for more than twenty -
one years ,
each party gained an incontrovertible right to the line thus established ,
and this whether either party knew of the adverse claim or not ;
and whether either party has more or less ground than was originally in the lot he owns .

Boundaries are frequently marked by partition fences ,
ditches ,
hedges ,
trees , &

When such a fence is built by one of the owners of the land ,
on his own premises ,
it belongs to him exclusively ;
when built by both at joint expense ,
each is the owner of that part on his own land .

When the boundary is a hedge and a single ditch ,
it is presumed to belong to him on whose side the hedge is ,
because he who dug the ditch is presumed to have thrown the earth upon his own land ,
which was alone lawful to do ,
and that the hedge was planted ,
as is usual ,
on the top of the bank thus raised .
